嗜憶 Swallow | Taiwanese Indie Horror Game

[@Blisterdude123]

27:45 The idea of an infant child with that stupid voice hitting me with the moody teenage existential angst would have me in stitches too.

[@meridiabryant9758]

Just as all marine crustaceans eventually become crabs, all horror games eventually gravitate towards lighthouse keepers

[@JunkyardGod]

Crab people Walk like Crab Talk like people

[@rosssnyder4490]

At this point you should just create a Lighthouse playlist for all of those games, Chris.

[@Charharr]

Themed playlists; 'Puzzle', 'Survival', 'Point & Click', 'Lighthouse', 'Toilet' 😂

[@hody.8381]

One of these days he's just going to start a real life career of lighthouse keeping. Maybe for April fools' we'll get a real life lighthouse tour or something

[@jamescunningham8092]

Bonus points if he gets footage of the toilets.

[@MsNovemberDaisy]

42:19 you probably already know this, but I believe the hard to read word on the wall is "married." This game was a fun trip, even with the typos. I also laughed when the son was talking. Maybe I mistook him for being younger, but when he declared you didnt understand him...yeah, I laughed while feeling baffled about his comprehension level. The visuals were fun to experience. (Plus I'm a sucker for lighthouse themes, so maybe I'm biased. 😆) Thanks for playing it! I really enjoy your videos.

[@iu.lia.na.]

20:50 imagine if at that point there was actually another person on the island who quickly turned the light on and ran to take the boat pretending to be the lighthouse keeper, leaving us stuck on the island and it just ended like that. That might have been scarier.

[@shadowjudge921]

Yes. yes, it would definitely be scarier. Of course it would also be rather comedic. I mean, imagine the lighthouse keeper on his way to the dock after handing over the lighthouse keys and so on, suddenly a shape dashes by in the darkness, and a moment later a voice shouting from the direction of the boat; "GO, GO, GO!" and the boat departs like a getaway car at a robbery.

[@ryanb4940]

Would have been better than the dumpster fire it turned out to be lol

[@graygarrison2692]

@@shadowjudge921 I’m so confused what maz means and what does Phil Hartman have anything to do with this Game’s Story?

[@LOWBORN-the-LOATHSOME]

The only way a lighthouse indie horror game can surprise me is if it, midway, also had noclipping into the Backrooms.

[@Scriptor13]

CJU in the midst of murder and mayhem: "Can I seriously not try _any_ of this turkey? That looks _lovely!"_ 😂 🤣 Oh, c'mon, Chris--it's feast OR familicide, not _both._ Interesting game visually, but not in any other way, imo. It's the terrible voice acting, typos, bad translation, crazy anachronisms, and your hilarious commentary that made watching fun. 😆

[@emchant2224]

CJ have you ever thought of posting a "Bloopers" of the times you try to do your intros and it just doesn't work. I think this is something we would all love to see!! Just an idea :D Unless you never mess up ofc which I am SURE you don't ever!!

For some reason these lighthouse games are always the best and most interesting! I'm glad cjugames has so many! :)

Dude, your upload rate is admirable. I enjoy games you play & your commentary. You are one the only one lets player on this site worth watching.

[@JordanJMyers]

Facts. I also really like Berleezy, Jacksepticeye, Gabs. Only 4 i watch

@@JordanJMyers harshlycritical was the best around 2010-2015. When lets playing was his hobby, it was good. Then it became his main source of income, something was lost. And that something was his original White Day lets play and his racist jokes in it, lol.

RIP Phil Hartman. You might remember him from such films as “Jingle All The Way” and “Small Soliders”, or TV shows such as Saturday Night Live, NewsRadio- and as Troy McClure, lawyer Lionel Hutz, and other characters on The Simpsons. The character of Zapp Brannigan on Futurama was also actually specifically written for Phil Hartman, but sadly his tragic death prevented him from voicing the role.

[@cinderellacomplex7]

Chris, when you reach 120k subscribers, you should find the nearest lighthouse and do a vlog!

[@Trash_prince]

Spirit of dead cild speaks to you cju: [WHEEEEEZE]

[@Quinlana83]

Very entertaining. Thank you for playing, CJU!

Wouldn't be surprised Chris would get a side job as a Literal Lighthouse Keeper in the future. The kind who ward of Cthulhu and what not

At this point Chris just start a new channel where you only play Lighthouse based horror games... lol 😆 "Cju's_lighthouse_emporium" 🤣

Loved the cut scene half way through of you laughing at the childs voice acting....was laughing with you 🤣 love watching your videos 👌🏼

[@TheCheshireCat2190]

Chris, you really must get ''Stray'' i've only just finished the game but wow... what a game 💖💖💖 i don't want to give anything away, the game is beautiful, colourful, so intriguing, the ending completely covered my body in goose bumps 🙀💖💖💖💖

[@Miluse.Evesteins97]

Unfortunately chris only interested on horror games tho

[@tiffys6747]

Voice acting is freaking hilarious , enjoyed this game

[@AvaLynn-ke1pe]

Listen cju, Idek if you'll see this or not but your sass gets me everytime 😂 I really appreciate how thorough you are with all your games and I always enjoy watching old and new videos. Thanks for literally always making my day better 😂🖤

[@terra7283]

You would make a great Lighthousekeeper and toilet specialist. It was an alright game, but not special in any way compared to the great lust of others. It looks great but the one from yesterday had an interesting story.

[@terraboo9922]

I thought Cj was going to say, at least I hoped he would say, "And if you would like to swallow. The link details are in the description below"😶😶😶😶😁😁😁😂😂😂

[@greygamertales1293]

I hope Chris recovers from his illness and becomes better.

[@Miluse.Evesteins97]

@Corprus Waifu CJU said : Back from Germany now, but back with a pretty horrible chest infection too. Coughing and spluttering quite a bit so I might hold off on recording videos for a couple more days. Sorry for the wait.

[@Miluse.Evesteins97]

@Corprus Waifuu welcome 😁 while waiting for chris to be back u can just watch his video there so many in his playlist to watch anyway well that what im doing right now just watching old video 😂

[@aldoparziale5669]

Poor Phil Hartman, I remember when that happened, crazy how long ago that was now

[@johannfunn6962]

“They’re dead aren’t they” “You know what maybe I should turn it back on” 😂

[@elizabethw.6154]

It's interesting all the lighthouse games nowadays. I actually took a tour of a lighthouse January, down in South Carolina. There are so many steps!

[@BASSOSOVIETICO1987]

I had this feeling they were dead since you have read that letter. In the end that was a very sketchy plot but some scarry idea's went pretty well despite some fails in voice acting or grammar.

[@hayateotaku8683]

bruh when that kid asked that question, all i can think is that one meme with the girl saying "b, do i look like i'm your father" 😂😂😂

I'm looking forward to the sequel, Spit....

[@DragonLady23]

That is so weird... I was watching Investigation Discovery earlier and it was showing the last days of Phil Hartman.

[@Heazie]

I'm glad you enjoyed your time with this game because I can tell you I certainly didn't lol.

[@Risseypops]

Thank you Cj. im so glad I found you and introduced you to my bf. you bring joy to our hearts dont ever change. Thank you .

[@veram1803]

Love your gameplays, thanks for sharing!

[@benjaminspurlock9651]

I'm with you, CJU, I was just floored by that child's line delivery and had to take a second. As promising a psychological horror game as this was, the voice acting definitely didn't do it any favors.

[@kittylovemeows]

Idk if you read these, but it was an interesting game to watch. It was different for sure. Thanks for playing.

[@amazingasmr4434]

CJU, I have been watching live courts...and I have learned The worrds are spoken different for many people. This is an azaming game!

[@Cory-lk5bu]

Thank you chris! Can you play obscure 2? Old playstation game i think youd like. Been here since conjuring house.

[@AlexOlinkiewicz]

well he would play Obscure 1 before he played the 2nd one.

[@FlyingWithTheWind]

Oh man I ADORE Obscure 2! One of my fave ps2 horror games 😁👌🏼

[@evanf1443]

“A lighthouse based layers of fear” I agree, that’s definitely not a bad thing. I really enjoy games that can remake the world around you.

[@KOU-ZAI]

Indeed, there were some good transitions in certain areas of this game, and I also liked that small segment where you avoided the light.... but sad to say, that's all my positives for this one. As for the negatives, here you go. Everything's scripted. Restricted to go only where you're told to go and led from end to end as you wait for something to happen. It's no different from walking in a horror house, minus the monsters. The lighter is useless, since it barely illuminates anything. The grammar wasn't proofread (and doesn't match the actual text that was on the written document). And they've included one of my pet peeves --- unnecessary writing on the walls, as if the diary wasn't enough. (And what even is 41:47-43:06. With the mix of poor voice acting, one had to wonder whether what he's saying was heartfelt or if he's just prone to reading whatever was on the walls out loud.) Lastly, let's not forget your invicible family, lol. Still, I've enjoyed the gameplay, mainly because of your commentary and reactions such as 27:38 - 28:00. XD EDIT: Just in case, the message at 42:14 was "Would it be better if I wasn't married".

[@phuggard]

Good effort from the Devs, although they really should have got some English play testers to find some of those translation issues. Enjoyable experience though.

[@montychristo86]

So now can we add a lighthouse keeper meme to your channel?

[@elisabetrouge]

Cju, I saw a trailer for The Mortuary Assistant just a little bit ago. Either the full game is out on Steam or soon will be. Exciting!

[@NickWheatley-dj7pm]

I really like your videos they are so good I like mystery games

[@rocker_kitty3807]

This game could've been very cool; the visuals by themselves are impressive, no doubt about that. But then you have all the audio/text goofs that made it just a gigglefest. "FAILING AND DROWNING" Using American currency in England, Phil Hartman out of nowhere. I realize English isn't the dev's first language, but if you want an English-speaking audience to take the game seriously then things like that should be addressed. I was right there with CJU with laughing my butt off most of the time.

[@robyd7290]

That 28:00 min laugh tho ☺️😂😆 so nice to hear these days 💪👍

[@VampChic10210]

I lost it at the toy car going through the wall 😂😂😂

[@LeLu1616]

37:50. That is crazy. Phil Hartman died 24yrs ago.

[@jakebiassa]

He still died a lot later then this game is supposed to have taken place. This game looks like it takes place in the 1920s or 1930s and Phil Hartman died in the late 90s.

[@bellateef]

13:14 😂 Edit: oh god it gets better... Also...Lionel Hutz, never forget

[@michealhaze4246]

New person 💯✌️, Thank you for the videos bro.

[@aldoparziale5669]

I'm guessing that obviously some of the story/dialogue got lost in translation, due to fact English isn't language of the devs, and translation you even say was added after the demo so maybe also were on a time crunch getting that put in for full game

[@mohammedsalah2309]

4 days no new upload? Do not go stopping on us… hopefully it is only a break, I enjoy your videos from The Kingdom of Saudi Arabia 👍🤍

[@greygamertales1293]

Wait, I also remember the name Flannan Isles from Dark Fall 2 Lights Out which id based on a poem inspired by real events that happened.

I was thinking this is probably based on the real life events of Flannan Isles too

I can't say i liked this one. The plot was really dull, the mystery was predictable and unintriguing and the horror was almost non-existent. Seriously, I almost fell asleep during this one.

I've never heard you are my sunshine in a horror game lol that's my lullaby and my daughters

[@alekpo2000]

i think the part is missing here is about the main character and the link to his mind, like the horror part of the game must be related to his mind or his past experiences, but this is just a series of setups for scares and then ending tacked on. why make an horror game if u dont have a single idea? are the developers being forced to do this?
